As soon as I wrote the title of today's post I got that cute song of the same title stuck in my head! You know the one, by Martina and the Diamonds {Though honestly, I SO thought it was a Katy Perry song - it really sounds like her!! Lol} <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l1JVYmxFmhM" target="_blank">Primadonna Girl by Marina and the Diamonds</a><br /><br />Anyways, I want to share the start of our new line called the {Prima Donna} range!<br />It will consist of Singlets, Tops and some little dollies hopefully all based around a stunning new ballerina print of fabric I have! <br /><br />Here is a sneak peek at some of the cuteness to come!!</div>

It's been over a week since I had a chance to last get on here. As you might have seen or read, Australia - and particularly Queensland where I am - has had extreme rain and flooding all over. This slowed down our work weeks with loss of power and internet everywhere, so I haven't had a chance to get on the ole' blog! </div>

Oh my goodness, it's SOOOO hot!! I am reading some of my favourite blogs in America who are posting photos of snow and blizzards and I am jealous. I've always said that when it comes to weather - in the cold, you can put more on... In the heat, there's only so much you can take off!!<br />
<br />
On that note, I'm afraid my brain isn't functioning quite to the capacity that I'd like, so today''s post will really be a photo catch up day for my <a href="http://fatmumslim.com.au/photo-a-day-january-2013-inject-a-little-fun-into-your-everyday/" target="_blank">Fat Mum Slim Photo A Day Challenge</a></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Two things I get to enjoy all to myself while the kids are at their Grandparents!! YUM!!<br />
<br />
While I was uploading these pictures on the blog it kind of made me think 'Yep. This is pretty much a normal day in the life of <a href="http://www.facebook.com/LittleMissFascinated" target="_blank">Little Miss Fascinated</a>' - a coffee to get me started, toys of some sort to pick up, tripping over a child or cat snoozing somewhere and finishing off with a moment of bliss with some sweet indulgence of chocolate! Ok, so a LOT more happens - but I'd still be happy if it <i>was</i> just these :)</div>

It was great today to start living up to my Word Of The Year I mentioned <a href="http://littlemissfascinated.blogspot.com.au/2013/01/word-of-year-2013.html" target="_blank">here</a> in my last post.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Now.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was sitting at the computer doing work today when Miss Five asked "Mummy, can we have a girly day today and do some fun things?".. So I got up from the computer straight away and our day started! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b></b><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
First we set up a carpet picnic for lunch, including a complete Tea Party of course!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKK1RwQFAGP2hXQaTRGmCKRLdB_c2jl16WVzTuIBQA9Y-cduZjg8Zn9YT-CyPjRO-YqRPCWFiQv5XhT8-zUJACIqzslu28cx9rx8fYhEGkdin714XavjJVNd__yWaOoVEkaezEaIYYeKiD/s1600/IMG_4008.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKK1RwQFAGP2hXQaTRGmCKRLdB_c2jl16WVzTuIBQA9Y-cduZjg8Zn9YT-CyPjRO-YqRPCWFiQv5XhT8-zUJACIqzslu28cx9rx8fYhEGkdin714XavjJVNd__yWaOoVEkaezEaIYYeKiD/s400/IMG_4008.JPG" width="356" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then after lunch she wanted to play 'shops', so we made up a shop in the middle of the lounge room with her at the 'checkout' and me as a customer! We found my market cash tin and filled it will change for her as her cash register..</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_6qFHA0RhFyLkbbHk1ObeOzYXT4k0BjRpC5hshhYqdVFzSxcDfk2BiIDSLm0e_I4rjgRNknxgL-c95X0GXinFC2YUQG5c9YecXHzbPhfd139dgSPyov4OaAbvHq7ualM14ZCYN8Mb5c9x/s1600/IMG_4085.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_6qFHA0RhFyLkbbHk1ObeOzYXT4k0BjRpC5hshhYqdVFzSxcDfk2BiIDSLm0e_I4rjgRNknxgL-c95X0GXinFC2YUQG5c9YecXHzbPhfd139dgSPyov4OaAbvHq7ualM14ZCYN8Mb5c9x/s400/IMG_4085.JPG" width="366" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then we needed a checkout 'scanner' - Daddy's old razor holder worked a treat for that! Lol..</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaCt8zCu1GsN3qUoMt6FmulD32j00z_1aXfFN5BlSK_UsdjvF7pfh78nsRhwKDHlLtViPQTqFZeTk2vcfKmwVD6a4c6LrEisZ23RsY1TGcgIpVLGfLR-QmGgqshtQjcRN47M0GuQJ9BqIr/s1600/IMG_4084.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaCt8zCu1GsN3qUoMt6FmulD32j00z_1aXfFN5BlSK_UsdjvF7pfh78nsRhwKDHlLtViPQTqFZeTk2vcfKmwVD6a4c6LrEisZ23RsY1TGcgIpVLGfLR-QmGgqshtQjcRN47M0GuQJ9BqIr/s400/IMG_4084.JPG" width="300" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And then of course, I had to go shopping!! She got out a heap of her books and toys and I went around the 'shop' like a woman on a shopping mission! She loved 'scanning' my items and I loved watching her smile.. {and make 'beep' noises for her scanner! Haha}</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

I few years back when I discovered the wonderful world of blogs, I noticed a trend that was emerging each January all over the 'blogosphere' - and that was </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
'Word Of The Year'.<br /><br />Instead of the whole 'New Year Resolution' speel that I was accustomed to, people everywhere were choosing a <i>word</i> to live by and inspire them for the year instead of a random list of, lets face it, usually unobtainable goals that make you put copious amounts of pressure on yourself to achieve {usually followed by copious amounts of disappointment when you don't follow through on said list}.<br /><br />I really love the idea of having a <i>word</i> instead of a point form list to look to throughout my 2013! And although it has taken me well into the second week of the year to settle on what<i> my</i> word was going to be, I finally have found the word for me...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1ovwr8nqWTlmyDzOMncqrQBSNCmVWSCjNZTLcYafXUHANXl6ArKjvIbn8OJAiuRKM_R11hmWUhAJPddi54Oj7eGnrR1FVdrjLQwqCHdxI4sIKqv7jphxBYHx_iX7GRL8r6nxlvpFjA3LU/s1600/now.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="305" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1ovwr8nqWTlmyDzOMncqrQBSNCmVWSCjNZTLcYafXUHANXl6ArKjvIbn8OJAiuRKM_R11hmWUhAJPddi54Oj7eGnrR1FVdrjLQwqCHdxI4sIKqv7jphxBYHx_iX7GRL8r6nxlvpFjA3LU/s400/now.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is the PERFECT word for me in so many ways. Let me share with you just a few reasons why..</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
~ Living in the <b>Now</b> ~ </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I pride myself on being able to juggle eleventy seventy million things at once. I'm a Mum. It's just what we do. But in doing so, I miss so many little things that are happening <b>now</b>. And this year I want to put down my mobile phone, ignore the impending housework, step away from the computer and play with my children <b>now.</b> When my daughter asks me to sit down and do a puzzle with her, I am not going to answer "In a minute honey, Mummy is just finishing this Facebook post.." - I'm going to sit down with her <b>now</b>. These precious little gifts we created are not going to be little and actually <i>wanting</i> every minute with us for long, so I want to absorb every minute with them <b>now</b>.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
~ Changing <b>Now</b> ~ </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I have gained a lot of weight since I married my gorgeous husband {I say it was inevitable - he's a glorious Head Chef by trade! Lol}. And although he absolutely LOVES every inch of me the way I am - I don't. I have always struggled with my weight, and I know it is a long haul ahead for me to get my body to a place I am comfortable with again, but talking about it and wishing for it will get me no where. I need to do something about it and I need to start <b>now</b>.<br /><br />~ Planning <b>Now</b> ~</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I want to take my family on a fabulous holiday! In fact, my husband and I have been talking about it for 5 WHOLE YEARS and yet we haven't been anywhere. The only reason why? Money. Every time we get excited and start to plan some wonderful trip away, the reality of life sets in and the money never seems to be there.. but only because we never actually make it a priority to start with!! So I have decided that we WILL be taking a glorious trip somewhere this year and we will start putting aside a little bit of money each week for this trip <b>now</b>.<br /><br />~ Expanding <b>Now</b> ~ </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
There are SO many things I want to do with my business. In fact it would probably scare you to see the list of ideas I have for <a href="http://www.facebook.com/LittleMissFascinated" target="_blank">Little Miss Fascinated</a> for 2013. But that's all it is - a list. I think of something new, make a mental note and file it away in the to-do pile for the business thinking 'I'm going to make that that one day'. The list is getting longer and I have noticed that when it does my motivation gets a hell of a lot shorter <i>real</i> fast!! So I am going to start making and following through on these ideas<b> now</b>. My business needs it, my clients need it and my creative mojo needs it!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1ovwr8nqWTlmyDzOMncqrQBSNCmVWSCjNZTLcYafXUHANXl6ArKjvIbn8OJAiuRKM_R11hmWUhAJPddi54Oj7eGnrR1FVdrjLQwqCHdxI4sIKqv7jphxBYHx_iX7GRL8r6nxlvpFjA3LU/s1600/now.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="244" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1ovwr8nqWTlmyDzOMncqrQBSNCmVWSCjNZTLcYafXUHANXl6ArKjvIbn8OJAiuRKM_R11hmWUhAJPddi54Oj7eGnrR1FVdrjLQwqCHdxI4sIKqv7jphxBYHx_iX7GRL8r6nxlvpFjA3LU/s320/now.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
So, those are just a few examples of how<b> NOW</b> is going to be my Word Of The Year for 2013..<br /><br />What's <i>your</i> word???<br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The feedback about my wreath I made was amazing - thank you all so much - and I was asked for some help and instructions on how to make one by a dozen or so people, so I thought I would put this tutorial together!! Now, be gentle with me - this is my first tutorial and all I had was my iPhone!! Haha..<br />
<br />
Let's Get Started!!<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;">The materials you will need is some sheet music (I purchase mine from thrift stores or secondhand book shops), cardboard, scissors, glue (I use a hot glue gun because I don't have the patience for craft glue but it would work as well! I would recommend hot glue for the assembly though as the wreath gets a little bit of weight about it once it's together!), a side plate template in size and a large cup template in size to trace around.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEje29IjnflNoDXgaYbh3p9-hRX-npMndG4uU-aeC3KAunQBwtdG9d9MFK7iz_Nor8WtWpJbF3L2k2d7AToDrRUyB7yp3zybUGs-dyUzpPFQ7Pkbd5OGuYpjkyzJJB4_aJA7ddyxvnjmaobF/s1600/IMG_3962.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="247" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEje29IjnflNoDXgaYbh3p9-hRX-npMndG4uU-aeC3KAunQBwtdG9d9MFK7iz_Nor8WtWpJbF3L2k2d7AToDrRUyB7yp3zybUGs-dyUzpPFQ7Pkbd5OGuYpjkyzJJB4_aJA7ddyxvnjmaobF/s320/IMG_3962.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;">The end result of the wreath do<span style="font-size: small;">ne</span> with a full music sheet is about the size of a large car tyre, so I use a side plate template for this size. Simply trace around the plate..</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYztpA9l8Kh8kvXy93eyVpD3YyYKETA7xYu0K3FnTo741ExHvIyFRMhWxM79binHJeWaVHeTnWaVVjTGcVgDMykkdA6M-lzfVJTqHwqf8xsaZsUop9i0dPrFLqgIDdeR-5j1YKjHtrdqBa/s1600/IMG_3963.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="267" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYztpA9l8Kh8kvXy93eyVpD3YyYKETA7xYu0K3FnTo741ExHvIyFRMhWxM79binHJeWaVHeTnWaVVjTGcVgDMykkdA6M-lzfVJTqHwqf8xsaZsUop9i0dPrFLqgIDdeR-5j1YKjHtrdqBa/s320/IMG_3963.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;">And then place your smaller template inside (the cup) and trace around..</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJLSFonGIWF2on4hy-74XKj_Vb9sMRfEpe5lZliK2kEJN8K76rBZEZHt8fMTst4M3bxD8cMIhd41FiOxTkYRNh5SAwbKQIMqnLI8qKH33usSdGWW-QzPAx3gR9Uw1jTphu5YRfUlpBgcb9/s1600/IMG_3964.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJLSFonGIWF2on4hy-74XKj_Vb9sMRfEpe5lZliK2kEJN8K76rBZEZHt8fMTst4M3bxD8cMIhd41FiOxTkYRNh5SAwbKQIMqnLI8qKH33usSdGWW-QzPAx3gR9Uw1jTphu5YRfUlpBgcb9/s320/IMG_3964.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;">This should be your end result cut out..</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrTA7EYXAvMtggwTsOof4fC97Dj2HN49pjRiKBixZCHcwnOzIXBs3juUG02WWbRUsiAiYIt2xqhOUlDshasJeATJA1ZitIKsrNBcH6ICmAwlydx0x-5zyX5_E5VVkgS2AS5159SdrKHQSh/s1600/IMG_3966.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrTA7EYXAvMtggwTsOof4fC97Dj2HN49pjRiKBixZCHcwnOzIXBs3juUG02WWbRUsiAiYIt2xqhOUlDshasJeATJA1ZitIKsrNBcH6ICmAwlydx0x-5zyX5_E5VVkgS2AS5159SdrKHQSh/s320/IMG_3966.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Now to make your cones. Grab the two corners of the longest side of your page..</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKOl65cD1HrplQo2AKWgWusb2NoIAm2fGPVXYy2qKg2g-oj24QBgEfVil2W0izOgIPu1yxSXIBE3Y75bOrGoDIBsD4Bygg3AlZoN10CD5oNB6OIc1I5INyBs1ULlDoYF232z69y_z3d8G-/s1600/IMG_3969.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="232" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKOl65cD1HrplQo2AKWgWusb2NoIAm2fGPVXYy2qKg2g-oj24QBgEfVil2W0izOgIPu1yxSXIBE3Y75bOrGoDIBsD4Bygg3AlZoN10CD5oNB6OIc1I5INyBs1ULlDoYF232z69y_z3d8G-/s320/IMG_3969.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Twist the left side towards <span style="font-size: small;">you</span> and the right side away from you..</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLiGHjoGYhEmV-XItiwrINgx3jHk_wMxkNknICG9hedyU1oJ9TJckiVO0MM8efvYouQMEuLLGd9bVbpZIw-E_guPInTkaobS3wxHUVlskIz2pn3fN_0QTMKaDDeyz4F8ig-CLcr_GrSkI5/s1600/IMG_3977.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="281" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLiGHjoGYhEmV-XItiwrINgx3jHk_wMxkNknICG9hedyU1oJ9TJckiVO0MM8efvYouQMEuLLGd9bVbpZIw-E_guPInTkaobS3wxHUVlskIz2pn3fN_0QTMKaDDeyz4F8ig-CLcr_GrSkI5/s320/IMG_3977.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;">It can be a little tricky until you get the hang of it! You want your left corner to roll into the sheet and your right corner to roll over the left corner..</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgALvHMsZ7HBdJY85tmm46BkuxbiedTXzIMzIm1U-FgtCcEum6QSNnXB8J9xxWNWJ4hFCmVCvPLUFLhbdfp1tHLczgFv9DK9799qsb3idEQ9iV3xEC2MkoDTO09rC0VdiLo4d1dty-5kDhA/s1600/IMG_3978.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="233" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgALvHMsZ7HBdJY85tmm46BkuxbiedTXzIMzIm1U-FgtCcEum6QSNnXB8J9xxWNWJ4hFCmVCvPLUFLhbdfp1tHLczgFv9DK9799qsb3idEQ9iV3xEC2MkoDTO09rC0VdiLo4d1dty-5kDhA/s320/IMG_3978.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Keep rolling your sheet over until you have the desired tightness you want for your cone. The looser your cone, the larger they are - the tighter the cone, the thinner they are! Add a spot of glue at the right hand bottom when you have the size you want..</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2DfgCSeHVlVF64sDahlkfG6lFnc-r-4QHoxNwgtarZc96VEDdyjXcbJX3-U5mENjX6h0IlMmDaB55HDdOR7RYpr6NRZFUS3QgBeWD_s16-EC7-AUiHx6T-5125Qnxu50BdFKezBe4JTeh/s1600/IMG_3979.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2DfgCSeHVlVF64sDahlkfG6lFnc-r-4QHoxNwgtarZc96VEDdyjXcbJX3-U5mENjX6h0IlMmDaB55HDdOR7RYpr6NRZFUS3QgBeWD_s16-EC7-AUiHx6T-5125Qnxu50BdFKezBe4JTeh/s320/IMG_3979.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Now get some cones made!! You can make as you go, but I like to make them in a pile ready to grab. The average wreath this size takes about 20..</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4tGeOa8Qv6Hxxs_oGViBCExQVR47gBEyoNJkWZwu_1Amscts1EQXVcZLXkQ5oNwYvAMlHSt097ZEjFF5Z47uO4_oFMLIRB8NhXEd53FoJ-Dvd9LAokojc65iGtY1vPCaSDWVIxRwyIKnw/s1600/IMG_3980.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4tGeOa8Qv6Hxxs_oGViBCExQVR47gBEyoNJkWZwu_1Amscts1EQXVcZLXkQ5oNwYvAMlHSt097ZEjFF5Z47uO4_oFMLIRB8NhXEd53FoJ-Dvd9LAokojc65iGtY1vPCaSDWVIxRwyIKnw/s320/IMG_3980.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Now to put it together!! Grab your circle we cut out. I have found it easiest to place my first 4 cones in a North, South, East, West style and fill in the quarters. You can place one and go around, but I always find mine end up wonky and not even - but maybe that's just me!! Lol</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPtGO1MQq8ywElVFMwo6diVva4tvm1sh5ItSF98itAOX1BxQ4mdI1y-G3NDTASFW2yh0yXYUZ4hTybE_GrOmrLfaxTT9fOiPUdMwuHYqNKt_qUN5yNhGK7-M6Ze5VVMrgKIrNbO0BuYJqq/s1600/IMG_3982.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPtGO1MQq8ywElVFMwo6diVva4tvm1sh5ItSF98itAOX1BxQ4mdI1y-G3NDTASFW2yh0yXYUZ4hTybE_GrOmrLfaxTT9fOiPUdMwuHYqNKt_qUN5yNhGK7-M6Ze5VVMrgKIrNbO0BuYJqq/s320/IMG_3982.JPG" width="251" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Add a spot of hot glue on the cardboard and slide the next cone in until you fill your first quarter, then repeat for the rest of the wreath!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I am really enjoying the <a href="http://fatmumslim.com.au/january-2013-photo-a-day-lets-do-this-thing/" target="_blank">Fat Mum Slim</a> 'Photo-A-Day' Challenge I am participating in this month! It is really refreshing to have a boost in creativity from another perspective. Seeing what the days topic is and then going off to explore the possibilities that could fit that topic is fun - and I am loving the 30 mins a day I am having as 'ME' time during it all. <br /><br />Here's a catch up on the past few days.. <br /><br />Day #6 - Mine..<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />This absolutely gorgeous compact was actually my Great Grandmothers from 1923. It is 90 years old, and last year my Grandmother gave it to me for my birthday. Now I'm lucky enough to call it mine..<br />
<br />
Day #7 - Street..<br />

<br />Living in the suburbs I did have plenty of opportunities to walk outside and take a photo of a peaceful country street. But that's not what I conjure in my mind when asked to provide my interpretation of 'street'. I think New York City and dark alleys. Busy rush hour and hard, textured lines. So I popped down our street to the manhole and snapped this shot - and I am REALLY happy with it! It's <i>exactly</i> what I wanted to portray. {I also had some Ninja Turtle flashbacks while editing it I must say..}<br /><br />Day #8 - Something beginning with 'T'..<br />

<br />I LOVE the old school 60's/70's vibe of this photo. The bare feet and colours themselves in the background remind me of looking through old photos of growing up that my parents had taken {yes, I am THAT old that I have photos of me taken in the 70's - but only just!! Lol}.<br />

I also love that I made every one of those 20 little 'T'oes in the photo..<br /><br />So, that's me up to date with the photos. Are you participating in the challenge too??<br /><br />Smiles and Happiness, Haylie xx<br />Haylie@haylieDphotographyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10980389575158330804noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1203138157271655345.post-76561708569277496242013-01-07T17:08:00.001+10:002013-01-07T17:48:57.782+10:00Bunnies and Cupcakes..Ahhhhhh, it feels good to sit down after a full day!! Having the kids on school holidays means a constant speed of 'Go, Go, Go!' - especially where Miss 5 is concerned! She is my little ball of energy, and I swear - if I could bottle the amount of energy this child had on a daily basis and sell it, I'd be a rich woman!! I'm yet to find her battery compartment. I'm sure she has one stocked with rechargeable batteries..<br />
<br />
We started the day off with some arts & crafts {like we do most days - she's my little artist, bless her} and made a heap of Toilet Roll Bunnies! What do you call a group of bunnies, anyways? A bundle of bunnies? A litter? {note to self, must google that later}..<br />
<br />
This would be a GREAT Easter activity too! I just picked it for this morning because I noticed an abundance of empty toilet roll holders in the kids bathroom behind their basket! Lol<br />

With that in mind, I knew that if we wanted to do something active with the kids that we would have to be up and out of the house fairly early so we wouldn't get caught out in it..<br />
<br />
Lathered with suncream, hats and copious water bottles, we packed a bag of fruit and trail mix and headed out the door - me with my good walking shoes on and the kids with their scooters and helmets! We went to a small park a few blocks over {not too far in case the heat hit suddenly} and had some fun playing, climbing, exploring & taking photos while we were there - the kids each had a camera too! <br />
<br />
So here are my Photo A Day topics and pictures...<br />
<br />
Day #4 - The View From Here...<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkJctGH89WnHeXGgw_IOlmgoDAmsVkI1Kv3bk0w9qlr_lQmE2nJr3tqJFqEPd8isoxp6uWT1xWgLrw4Oq9JKJ4OAsDuMfHiFyIEccXAnKA_HPvQV6tlNGifz7N2KKKynIF10MXy6Bn-qHp/s1600/Day+4.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjkJctGH89WnHeXGgw_IOlmgoDAmsVkI1Kv3bk0w9qlr_lQmE2nJr3tqJFqEPd8isoxp6uWT1xWgLrw4Oq9JKJ4OAsDuMfHiFyIEccXAnKA_HPvQV6tlNGifz7N2KKKynIF10MXy6Bn-qHp/s320/Day+4.JPG" width="240" /></a></div>This gorgeous old tree was what caught my eye straight away, with its stunning root structure and sturdy branches..<br />
<br />
Day #5 - Movement...<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYXUiFu8vqVZO3CJOSHQk5JDlSYwWvJ0-qUpfhyphenhyphen-Nzk6n21FqmM6eFiVnd5n21CyelyFvR8bRFl6A8uLuLDuip0xEGOIQ4ghWXPUU0VvjIAAYJjQLwHSo0cDTJ4dIWfjGdCYWD2WijWcp4/s1600/Day+5.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYXUiFu8vqVZO3CJOSHQk5JDlSYwWvJ0-qUpfhyphenhyphen-Nzk6n21FqmM6eFiVnd5n21CyelyFvR8bRFl6A8uLuLDuip0xEGOIQ4ghWXPUU0VvjIAAYJjQLwHSo0cDTJ4dIWfjGdCYWD2WijWcp4/s320/Day+5.JPG" width="240" /></a></div>I couldn't resist capturing Miss 5 soaring as high as she could on the swings, and I think this shot somehow captures that feeling you got as a kid - like you really were about to take off and fly into the sky!!! <br />
<br />
How did your weekend start??<br />

And out of that few, I have a couple that I follow {ok, stalk..} daily. One of them is the gorgeous and extremely talented Shaunna from <a href="http://www.perfectlyimperfectblog.com/" target="_blank">Perfectly Imperfect</a>. She lives in America and restores beautiful pieces of furniture, literally breathing life into forgotten treasures! She has also just recently opened her AMAZING store in Alabama which I am currently saving up to go visit - her & the stunning Kelli from <a href="http://restoreinteriors.com/" target="_blank">Restore Interiors</a> will have me knocking on their doors in the not so distant future, so put the kettle on girls!! <br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzokBoUCul4X91OvjWyevL_bOZVuGDr93tLAUVizS19uCPpV6bcHLl6aKRGQjvasZaHVpnCioQdb2n_7Aq5UAJhwQ8JwKsLcG73jMmTPrePKlSx4PHFeNPahNVQPKSCdlHExbO2SPm6IXi/s1600/shaunna_west_about.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzokBoUCul4X91OvjWyevL_bOZVuGDr93tLAUVizS19uCPpV6bcHLl6aKRGQjvasZaHVpnCioQdb2n_7Aq5UAJhwQ8JwKsLcG73jMmTPrePKlSx4PHFeNPahNVQPKSCdlHExbO2SPm6IXi/s320/shaunna_west_about.jpg" width="214" /></a></div>
Shaunna doesn't just restore furniture, she is a Mummy, a wonderful blogger, a teacher & a decorating guru just to list a few of her talents! She also has an awesome thing she shares with her readers on her blog called '25 things..' - which is really just 25 random things at random times about Shaunna and her life.<br />
<br />
As an avid reader of hers, I LOVE catching her '25 Things..' lists as they make me feel a little more connected to all that is <a href="http://www.perfectlyimperfectblog.com/about" target="_blank">Perfectly Imperfect</a>, even all the way over here in Australia. And recently it has inspired me to do the same for my followers here & on the <a href="http://www.facebook.com/LittleMissFascinated" target="_blank">Little Miss Fascinated</a> facebook page. I want all of my likers and followers to know a little bit more about the real life person behind all those posts and pictures!<br />
<br />
So, without further adieu, here are 25 Things about me..<br />
<br />
1. I am a coffee addict... No, seriously - an ADDICT! We're talking 15+ cups of coffee a day...<br />
<br />
2. I'm the mother of a gorgeous, sensitive 7yr old boy and a feisty, independent 5yr old girl {my angels}<br />
<br />
3. I am deathly terrified of spiders.. like, run-out-into-the-middle-of-the-street-until-someone-kills-it afraid!<br />
<br />
4. I LOVE to sew and make pretty, vintage inspired little girls clothes<br />
<br />
5. I dream one day of having my own clothing line for said little girls clothes<br />
<br />
6. I love, love, love cats<br />
<br />
7. Currently I am thinking of returning to university to get my degree in Sign Language<br />
<br />
8. I hate peas<br />
<br />
9. I don't drink alcohol<br />
<br />
10. I have a passion for photography, especially black & white<br />
<br />
11. Pastel mint green is my favourite colour<br />
<br />
12. I'm sure I was born in the wrong era and LOVE the fashion of the 40's & 50's {though I don't have the figure to wear them!}<br />
<br />
13. My husband is one of the sweetest, most romantic & thoughtful men I have ever met, and our life is like a real life romantic comedy.. {also, he could be Colin Farrell's twin brother, he's extremely handsome! Lol}<br />
<br />
14. Everyday I listen to American Country Music straight from Nashville - I'm a true country girl at heart!<br />
<br />
15. I'm allergic to citrus<br />
<br />
16. I have a gorgeous big Sister<br />
<br />
17. Willy Wonka and The Chocolate Factory {original} is my favourite movie<br />
<br />
18. From ages 4 to 13 I traveled around the country singing professionally & in competitions<br />
<br />
19. If I could only eat one dessert for the rest of my life it would be Banoffee Pie!!<br />
<br />
20. I have backpacked around the world<br />
<br />
21. My Mum & Dad are my best friends - and truly the BEST parents any child could ever ask for..<br />
<br />
22. I played the drums from age 5 to 9 and went EVERYWHERE with a pair of drum sticks in my back pocket<br />
<br />
23. I spend way too much time on Facebook - but it's hard not to when you run the base of your business on there!<br />
<br />
24. John Mayer is secretly my 'other' husband.. {wink, wink..}<br />
<br />
25. I am a night owl and often don't go to bed until 1am in the morning<br />
<br />
WOW!! That was harder than I thought to think of 25 Things about myself on the spot like that! Lol.. I hope some of them make you feel like you are getting to know me a little better!<br />
<br />
Well, that's enough randomness from me in one post! I'll leave you with today's Photo A Day picture..<br />
<br />
Day #3 - Heart.. <br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Today is about <b>'Gratitude'</b>..<br /><br />As I had mentioned in the past couple of posts, I have started the fabulous <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/FMSphotoaday/" target="_blank">Fat Mum Slim - Photo A Day Challenge</a><u>,</u> and while scrolling through the Facebook Page for members who have
joined in, I noticed several people posting photo's of their 'Day 1 -
Today' pictures that included diaries & journals of some sort.<br /><br />Now,
I have NEVER been able to keep a diary! I always figured that since I'm
such an open & talkative person, I kind of had no need to write
down the things that occurred during my day since I pretty much spoke
them out loud to whoever would listen {thanks Mum & Dad growing up
and now my patient husband that constantly puts up with my never ending
chatter! Lol}</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<br /><br />However, after being inspired by one picture & post in particular by Kairan at <a href="http://www.threegratefulthings.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Three Grateful Things</a>, I have decided to start my own 'Daily Photo & Gratitude Journal' - combining the Photo A Day Challenge with writing down at least 3 things I am grateful for each day. Whether it's as profound as the health & well being of my family or as simple as being grateful for air conditioning {one of todays - phew it's hot!!}, I am loving the idea of keeping track of all the little AND big things that make me grateful each day.<br /><br />My journal also co-insides with the Photo A Day topic for today!<br />
<br />

My husband actually bought me this journal 3 WHOLE YEARS AGO and it has been sitting in my office waiting for the 'perfect' thing to be used for - and I know I've finally found it..<br /><br />Smiles and Happiness, Haylie xx<br /><br />Haylie@haylieDphotographyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10980389575158330804noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1203138157271655345.post-8864726164544396372013-01-01T10:48:00.001+10:002013-01-01T10:48:32.439+10:00Hello 2013...I can't believe it's actually here - a New Year already! I honestly don't think you realise how fast they start to click over until you are older - I'm sure during my 20's it was just another excuse to party without actually realising the effects of a whole new year beginning!! The years seem to be getting shorter and moving faster now. But I must also say that the quality has improved so much since my twenties, even if the quantity seems to lessening!!<br />
<br />
Today is also the start of the fun <a href="http://fatmumslim.com.au/january-2013-photo-a-day-lets-do-this-thing/" target="_blank">Fat Mum Slim Photo A Day Challenge</a>!

To start my New Year I have decided to have a little fun - and create some memories along the way.. I am going to participate in the "Photo A Day Challenge" over at the wonderful <a href="http://fatmumslim.com.au/" target="_blank">Fat Mum Slim</a>!! Even though I know my business 'plate' will be full straight from the start of 2013 {Yay!! Thank you my wonderful clients xx}, I think taking 10 minutes a day for <i>ME</i> by doing the January Photo Challenge is a great way to start off the year with a little balance..<br />
<br />

I finally got my new sewing machine (after my previous one of only 4 months started playing up!) along with my new sander and upholstery gun, which meant I could finally finished Project Number 2 - 'The Toy Box'!<br />
<br />
This piece was one of those things I brought home where dear hubby raises one eyebrow and gives me 'that look'. You know the one I mean - the 'That Should Be In Somebody's Dumpster Right Now, Not In Our Living Room' look. And I don't blame him to be honest. It was damaged, a bad colour and just plain hideous.. BUT I saw past all of that and saw the potential in it to be the last piece of furniture I needed to complete Miss 4's new room :o)<br />
<br />

I took the lid off the hinges and ripped up that old peachy cover thing, which then turned out to be like 'Pass The Parcel' because after I pulled the first layer off , there was another random layer underneath! Lol<br />
So 4 layers later it was back to the original lid which needed a good clean and sand, and I also repaired the slight damage to the body..<br />
<br />
Few coats of paint later and we were getting somewhere! I found this gorgeous chic floral material in my stash that I thought would look wonderful. I then set the lid with padding (to make it more like a settee on top) and attempted my first try of upholstering with my new gun. It went better than I expected, though I look forward to learning some more about it all!<br />
<br />

<br />
Screwed the lid back on and I was done... not bad for a couple of dollars & it holds all of Miss 4's goodies with room for more! <br />

Lol<br />
<br />
I thought I would start sharing my new found creative passion with you all as I run with what is inspiring me currently, and post how it actually all started.<br />
<br />
<b>Quick Note - </b>After becoming addicted to <a href="http://www.restoreinteriors.blogspot.com/">Restore Interiors</a> by the lovely Kelli Wright only recently, I have since learnt to photograph your pieces in great light before AND after your restoration... So sorry in advance to the poor pictures I had already taken, and I have put a new camera on my birthday list (hint, hint hubby!).<br />
<br />
I wanted a few pieces of wooden doll furniture for my Miss 4's new shabby chic room (which you can see come together here in <a href="http://littlemissfascinated.blogspot.com/2011/06/from-tink-to-chic.html">From Tink to Chic</a>) and knew that I either had find a budget I didn't have to buy them brand new, or try my hand at restoring some pre-loved items.<br />
<br />
I found this great little hand made wooden cradle for a steal online just before Christmas. Once again, excuse the picture. I had more on my iPhone but have recently updated to the iPhone 4S and lost my last few shots - so this is all I have of the cradle before :o(<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj36v6NGyf_EW5WuAOYOdJNjQAFFxk7PElFZMmlWiQMZ-hnEH-F060-8Z7x_RZFSgf39MaI1-pjmrMd6jFqv4xJQD-vxgzbLaVIq9yxUf07WtY52laBUOdOajin8lsEGumV2O6ohKPIzWUv/s1600/cradleb4-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj36v6NGyf_EW5WuAOYOdJNjQAFFxk7PElFZMmlWiQMZ-hnEH-F060-8Z7x_RZFSgf39MaI1-pjmrMd6jFqv4xJQD-vxgzbLaVIq9yxUf07WtY52laBUOdOajin8lsEGumV2O6ohKPIzWUv/s320/cradleb4-2.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I then found a cute little high chair on a garage sale site that was only $4!! Bargain...</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqO2j8_5h4gabhTDeY3DupbMtGl1G6xD1KGxR3ahKb59HIyMMA7ZpMoDVjUfaMHEm3nez36D_EyQ-l9KwuQ28Hn4rrpmqRB5zZirMUsmY84ZUGcjYnAqmCIKOv7t2118yVydALyKO-BsuT/s1600/hichairb4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqO2j8_5h4gabhTDeY3DupbMtGl1G6xD1KGxR3ahKb59HIyMMA7ZpMoDVjUfaMHEm3nez36D_EyQ-l9KwuQ28Hn4rrpmqRB5zZirMUsmY84ZUGcjYnAqmCIKOv7t2118yVydALyKO-BsuT/s320/hichairb4.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />
<br />
After sanding & prepping I decided to paint the cradle in a White Gloss <b>(oh my smurf - gloss paint is hideous to work with & I am trying ever so hard to source an Australian supplier of Annie Sloan chalk paints & waxes!!!) - If you find one or know of one PLEASE let me know!!!</b><br />
<br />
I finished off with a light distressing of the cradle and the same on the high chair. I wanted to make the two pieces a little more vintage feeling, so I added these two moldings to both - which I think worked perfectly!<br />

It has been 7 months since my last Blog....<br />
<br />
Yes, 7 MONTHS!! And yet, when I started this blog, I thought I would be on here a few times a week! Well, at least ONCE a week at a minimum. But life just takes over at times, and until one has been fully bitten by the 'blogger bug' I think it is just another business tool that some of us think of as<i> <b>"I'd better get onto this blogging business that everyone else is doing, to keep up with the rest of the social media world!"</b></i><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuOyYvA8KHWL6JdlEhKLHMpV9jejVCFQXMpTUCB_1AjoPsepG0-K6QYFeiJBpn0NtRYRfzvhLnU_FdoO5Mwfn5AkH3Qfes-AZAkzi1ik0Y7APlDPKYWTmFen-mJnULfy8el784RLdDvgxI/s1600/must+have+social+medias.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="216" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuOyYvA8KHWL6JdlEhKLHMpV9jejVCFQXMpTUCB_1AjoPsepG0-K6QYFeiJBpn0NtRYRfzvhLnU_FdoO5Mwfn5AkH3Qfes-AZAkzi1ik0Y7APlDPKYWTmFen-mJnULfy8el784RLdDvgxI/s320/must+have+social+medias.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />
But I have discovered recently it can be much, much more than that. I'd watch others on Facebook or Pinterest talk about how they LOVE such-n-such's blog, or that they are excited that (insert business/person)'s new blog post has just been published. And honestly to me, it seemed like a LOT of random reading trying to keep up with all these writings!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5UUSVjVy52hE1kGGo1O6OkDqRcZGu8nbKXiT805AzFbcWS9nw3Q_2UQHWMNyYXsApmmxIbOJFAQzBGELPeHgevK9XZRg8nvsonz0B8n36FCf-qr7qXLOlQw-MdljewoEMcofVvowvK8Vl/s1600/update+blog+pic.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="192" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5UUSVjVy52hE1kGGo1O6OkDqRcZGu8nbKXiT805AzFbcWS9nw3Q_2UQHWMNyYXsApmmxIbOJFAQzBGELPeHgevK9XZRg8nvsonz0B8n36FCf-qr7qXLOlQw-MdljewoEMcofVvowvK8Vl/s320/update+blog+pic.gif" width="320" /></a></div><br />
You see, I was feeling a little lack of inspiration for <a href="http://www.facebook.com/LittleMissFascinated">Little Miss Fascinated</a> since the Christmas break. Well before then even to be honest, and those of you that are avid followers of my facebook page would have noticed the lack of posting and goings on with it all.<br />
<br />
I think the hardest thing to do was to actually admit it.<br />
<br />
Being a WAHM comes with a lot of guilt that you're not pulling your weight work/financially at times for your family when you lose your creative mojo. And as much as I tried, I just couldn't find ANY inspiration to feel creative again. Suddenly, just opening the doors to my office came with this overwhelming feeling of sadness, frustration and guilt for not wanting to even enter the room. And the LAST thing I ever wanted to feel was pressured & burdened into being creative..<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHnJ8ts3Y63BHPBcb25Rn333V3Vyb3m2BOEuVuUf0_3k-6GtB8-aDi9rYSgh1vuJMfwhOMUlEAV_7ARLhE5CwbKDTSpNLleKA5tldCN4NciCFtDWZPUNQnib842mz5fU9_UFAD_O-gqvlo/s1600/lost_mojo_ad_b.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="306" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHnJ8ts3Y63BHPBcb25Rn333V3Vyb3m2BOEuVuUf0_3k-6GtB8-aDi9rYSgh1vuJMfwhOMUlEAV_7ARLhE5CwbKDTSpNLleKA5tldCN4NciCFtDWZPUNQnib842mz5fU9_UFAD_O-gqvlo/s320/lost_mojo_ad_b.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />
Then something interesting happened... I discovered another passion that has simply engulfed me!<br />
<br />
I am in love with restoring furniture.... Yes, TOTALLY random I know. And not really a money maker (as of yet) but I am slowly becoming ok with the fact that more than anything, it has finally restored (no pun intended! Lol) my creative mojo. And I have one person to thank for helping get to this place recently.. And that is the GORGEOUS Kelli Wright from <a href="http://www.restoreinteriors.blogspot.com/">Restore Interiors</a>. <br />
<br />

This fabulous mother of 3 has one of the most amazingly creative talents I have ever seen - she literally breathes life into old pieces of furniture and items, giving them a whole new lease of life.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBVD_RWKeME-KAEHBls1zy3DX0Ih3CGvuwMSetrGxLJP5DixO6P2mPOheI72D_nDNobzmHoQqPGqPiI3DML6YgmZDQm4moD8Qd9hePNz4nAHUnKnzlxKLwJiGewrfonnvaK9qgVT9jhevw/s1600/restore1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBVD_RWKeME-KAEHBls1zy3DX0Ih3CGvuwMSetrGxLJP5DixO6P2mPOheI72D_nDNobzmHoQqPGqPiI3DML6YgmZDQm4moD8Qd9hePNz4nAHUnKnzlxKLwJiGewrfonnvaK9qgVT9jhevw/s320/restore1.jpg" width="212" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitld9y92KGVb3XQeTpW13e7t0YlM_otbQjEwr2651ljy9G9-isnoX492v71ZBpX0INwIQd1vi4GHeKbXq84Hg7hZnoi63_101KrgwY8DzmBBz3PdWi93UolRLGG3dWGHn3jFmHw2r1LlMT/s1600/rstore2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitld9y92KGVb3XQeTpW13e7t0YlM_otbQjEwr2651ljy9G9-isnoX492v71ZBpX0INwIQd1vi4GHeKbXq84Hg7hZnoi63_101KrgwY8DzmBBz3PdWi93UolRLGG3dWGHn3jFmHw2r1LlMT/s320/rstore2.jpg" width="212" /></a></div><br />
I have always been a garage sale/op shop queen and on many occasion have brought something home with a vision of what I could creatively do with it to re-vamp some new life into it. Though I never thought I had the craftiness or talent to actually do something totally new & transforming with something from start to finish. The mental picture was always there, I just didn't know where to start. Until I found Kelli's blog!<br />
<br />
So now I can confidently say, I have been bitten by that earlier mentioned 'blogger bug', because the day I discovered Kelli's blog I literally read the ENTIRE blog from start to finish in one go and am now waiting on baited breath for her next post! Lol... NOW I UNDERSTAND, FELLOW BLOG ADDICTS!!!!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhia8YoD3TDPp4ShSknhB6TF9pwD9RDM5uy_hqwpiCFwJiZGtWAlVtbo24-aAqonVtNIca8YEksCaS6X89duq1xnCMoLAH0pRuVPz8M2ngxAxy24Td4S1DScEUSpLpug4IJy_aNLnThl6J2/s1600/love-your-blog-award.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhia8YoD3TDPp4ShSknhB6TF9pwD9RDM5uy_hqwpiCFwJiZGtWAlVtbo24-aAqonVtNIca8YEksCaS6X89duq1xnCMoLAH0pRuVPz8M2ngxAxy24Td4S1DScEUSpLpug4IJy_aNLnThl6J2/s1600/love-your-blog-award.jpg" /></a></div><br />
So I look forward to getting this blog & my creative mojo back up & running, and although it may not be about hair clips & fascinators like I originally intended - it will be about me, and the new life I am breathing into myself and my creative side once again. For those of you still trying to find your own mojo, all I can say is don't be afraid to look in directions you never possibly thought of before - it may not be in what you want or even expect, but it is there waiting for you and you will find it again...<br />
<br />
Thanks to you all for popping over here & I hope you all stick around - I think it's going to be one heck of a ride!<br />

So there you have it!! From Tink to Chic in a day (well, over a few weeks of collecting items - Lol) and apart from her tallboy that we got new-ish, everything else was from ebay / op shops / items I re-vamped etc...<br />
<br />
A room fit for a princess and she absolutely LOVES it! Let me know what you all think! <br />
<br />
Now for Master 5's room..... hmmmmm???? Lol<br />
